Typical, but how lucky am I, still hear seeing another Easter with my babies, Sometimes I find it hard to believe that I have Mesothelioma.
My cough has nearly gone, I am also hoping that eating and drinking will pick up now as I have lost over a stone in weight, over 14 lbs to my American friends.
I made some phone calls yesterday, firstly to the hospital in Taunton to tell them that I wouldn't be coming up for the TOF op on 28th April because I have the gall stone op in Plymouth.
The TOF op is now being done on 19th May in Taunton.
I rang my GP's surgery about having a respiratory test on Tuesday morning before the gall stone op and in the afternoon I have pre op obs at the hospital.
My GP left a message asking me if I was interested in taking part in medical students studies in Plymouth. I said I would, it will be in June if I am accepted. She also told me that her colleague was reading a book by Lionel Shriver called "so much for that", it is about a lady who is diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma. Apparently there is a lady from Plymouth, England mentioned in it and she is convinced it is me. I will be very impressed if it is. How wonderful. The author must have done a lot of research. I downloaded the kindle and will have a read of it. How exciting!!
I missed Kieran's dental appointment on Wednesday with all what has been going on. I will ring next week and get another one, he isn't looking forward to it at all.
